You made an argument for keeping them IN, not removing them. If everyone who wants to play the game regardless will do so, then removing them is pointless because all those people are having fun one way OR the other. All removing them would do is upset the people who, despite having different priorities than most of us or engaging in some "technically this is permitted" "gameplay" to "succeed" over the more common folk, don't deserve to have their fun ruined just because you don't like their idea of fun.

Leave them in. Ruin their money hording schemes. Make lists on all highly contested items. Let's go full in!

Guise of the Deceiver - Never adjust to Mask of Deception. Never becomes legacy. Does this hurt ANYTHING other than it's rarity post removal? And some people's e-peen?

Manastone - Never removed from loot table. Never legacy. Value plummets. We all get a shot at this mostly worthless toy. A few classes get a small advantage.

Jboots - No list, no need for changes to the original timeline. It's value is moot compared to the other items on /list.

Rubicite - Never removed. No longer becomes legacy. It isn't a complete game changer. We will be swimming in Fungi Tunics in a couple of years anyhow. It's primarily fashion quest?

These suggestions most I've seen before. This is an example of alternate timeline classic. It still feels classic. We are already playing in an alternate timeline "classic." We should stop trying to preserve these unhealthy classic play styles. A lot has changed IRL in 20 years.

correct on every single count, also increase their drop rate significantly

sensible ideas all around. manastone becomes fairly useless once Kunark hits and it stops working in the planes. guise is nothing more than extreme fashionquest, rubicite is also fashionquest. jboots aren't truly a 'legacy' item and unless they're going to start dropping as "Journeyman's Boots from DRELZNA OMG GUYS" there's no way to tell where someone got theirs.

alternatively, just boost the drop rates so people can actually get the items in a reasonable amount of time instead of endangering their own health.

ITT - we are replaying 20 years of successful mudflation and recreating the mechanic that destroyed everquest WHILE we are playing classic everquest! SUCH IMMERSENESS

Listening to people on the list in Discord. They do not sound like they're doing well physically after 40+ hours with no afk's allowed.
